Hi T Net, Ground Hog Day 2011 Wed. was the meltdown here in Jersey , just enough to get rid of the remaining white stuff . Temps were up in the high 50's and the pesky groundhog varmit did his thing . A short hunt was the best medicine for cabin fever . Started out at a nearby old reliable corn field area and found some nice iron relics , horse shoes , and two more ax heads . Then after nothing but shell tops for an hour I dug some ammo for small caliber gun. I was ready to call it when I dug this pistol at about six inches near the brass and lead . I was sure it wasn't a toy and cleaned it up back at the house . Turns out to be a Ivers Johnson , 1889 Defender pocket pistol, 22 cal. five shot revolver . 
Pictures are what it used to look like when first made 1889 -1895. I have been finding some gun parts lately but this is the first complete one in years. 8) Not a large cal. bad boy but still in fair shape . Last picture is the ground hog . Lil varmits packin' heat 
Thanks for taking a look , CMDdawg
